In response to Larry's desire with Ben's second to see **2** LEGO train layouts at the same show, PNLTC did a small (last minute) show -- with a hasty display -- on March 7th at which there was indeed two separate groups each with its own display.

(...) I'd rather see them combined! Both layouts are modular. GMLTC has more modules under construction. What's needed are two relatively simple transition modules since GMLTC and PNLTC modules are built to different standards. Then, connect the (...)

Hmm... 11+11+27.50+3 = 52.50 (shipping included) S@H wants 66. That gives you the entire last car, including 6 train windows, 3 minifigs and a bunch of black slopes and misc parts from that car and the engine for 13.50. That's not making a LOT of (...) (26 years ago, 16-Mar-99, to lugnet.trains)

Uh, if you are not looking to *make* any money off the sale of this set, you may want to drop your asking prices. BTW, why should I buy your motor for $27.50 when I can buy one from S@H anytime for that? (...) (26 years ago, 16-Mar-99, to lugnet.trains)

Anyone interested in buying the wheelbarrel, Yellow tipper car and the flat bed car with the brown bricks on it from the 3225 train set. I want to buy a few more of these sets though I don't want anymore of those cars, I also might possibly sell a (...) (26 years ago, 16-Mar-99, to lugnet.trains)

Now that's an idea! The GMLTC layout would fit very nicely in the middle of a PNLTC display. Actually, probably best not a good idea since the crowd may run our layout over trying to get a good look at the masterful creation GMLTC has created. I (...)

A fantastic time was had by all, especially me. I was particularly impressed with the layout's ease of set-up and break-down-- each in about an hour! 'Course, if I hear "How many Legos (sic) did it take to build this?" or "How much did all of these (...) (26 years ago, 15-Mar-99, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.general, lugnet.loc.us.mn.msp)
